πŸ’– buffer_putm(3) β€” the "write a whole lil squad of strings" one πŸ’–

okay bestie, pull up a chair because today we're talking about buffer_putm from the Library Functions Manual, and honestly? it's giving effortless. πŸ¦‹

This is the page that tells you how to write ASCIIZ string(s) to a buffer β€” yes, plural, that's the whole point, we love a multi-tasker. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

buffer_putm β€” write ASCIIZ string(s) to buffer

no cap, that's the name, that's the mission. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNTAX πŸŽ€

okay so this is what you gotta type, literally copy-paste energy:

#include <libowfat/buffer.h>

int buffer_putm(buffer* b,const char* x,...);

look at those ... at the end. that's the icon behavior. that's the variadic main character energy. πŸ‘‘


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea, and I'm gonna keep it a hundred with you:

buffer_putm is like buffer_puts, but β€” and this is the part that ate, fr fr β€” it can be passed more than one string.

that's it. that's the whole vibe. instead of calling buffer_puts a million times like some kind of peasant, you just hand it a whole little friend group of strings and let it cook. πŸ”₯


πŸ’œ RETURN VALUE πŸ’œ

  • 0 β€” everything was fine. slay. no notes. we love to see it. 🫢
  • -1 β€” error, and it's setting errno, so go check that before you spiral. 😭

πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

the rest of the friend group, go say hi to them too:

iykyk πŸ’–


and that's the whole page, bestie!! this lil masterpiece lives in the buffer_putm(3) section of the Library Functions Manual, so you can find it again whenever you need it. mwah, go forth and buffer responsibly. πŸ’…βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸŒΈ
